The Secrets of Droon

Journey to the Volcano Palace


The Secrets of DroonI loved this book. It was very exciting. It was about Eric, Neal and Julie. They all had weird dreams and each of them were about Droon. In the last book, Keeah said your dreams will say when to go back. So, Eric, Neal and Julie went to check if the stairs had returned because they disappeared after the last time. So, they go check the closet where the stairs were and they were back! They could go to Droon again.

So they go down the stairs and this time they end up in a desert. There they find Keeah, Galen, Max and Purple Lumpies. (Purple Lumpies are like purple pillows with faces and they have an excellent sense of smell.) They all go to find Sparr and get the red eye of Dawn back.

They set out to find Kano. Sparrs secret palace, the problem is Sparr lives in a volcano! The riddle they have to solve to find it is, “it can be seen where it is not”. Nobody know exactly where Kano is, but they set off to find it anyway.

After a while, they see an oasis so they stop, rest, and get a drink. Eric went over to a spot that wasn't taken and went to take a sip of water. He froze at what he saw in the water. He saw the gate to Kano. He looked behind him and there was no gate, but it was there in the reflection. He had solved the riddle. They rushed to get the big iron gate before Sparr notices they are there.

It is much different on the other side of the gate than on this side. The sky was brown and the air was bad-smelling, and there was a volcano in the middle.

Later, Keeah and Eric see an ugly monster who needs to drink from a pool so he can turn back into Sparr. They try to tell Neal, Julie, Max and the Lumpie king what had happened but Sparr finds them, but they escape. Eric got separated from the others and finds the room that the Red Eye of Dawn is in.

Eric ran in between the squirts of lava and gets the eye, but he can't control it. He starts shooting holes everwhere! Julie, Neal, Keeah and Khan find him , and help him control it and then get away on a flying carpet.

Now there is another riddle. “It cannot be seen where it is.” The only thing in sight is a rock. Eric thought for a second and realized that they need to head for the rock and into it. It is the way out. They had made it out of Kano.

They find the stairs and Eric, Neal and Julie head home to start cleaning the basement.

The news isn’t good for Tigard, Oregon home sales with the average sales price being down by 8.8% from the same time last year, This is down more than a percent since July.
